3D printed cast

3D printed cast could heal bones 40 per cent faster

3D printed cast

Designed by Turkish industrial designer Deniz Karasahin says that 3d printed cast will improve the overall healing experience for broken or fractured limbs by focusing on the patient’s comfort and the amount of time needed for the body to heal itself. Karasahin also says that the Cast is environmentally friendly and water resistant as well as being slimmer and lighter than traditional casts. The 3d casts would be customized for each patient. In order to fit the limb perfectly the injured area is scanned using a 3d body scanner. The subsequent data is transferred to a modelling software, where the overall size and geometry of the cast is decided.

3D printed cast

The idea is that, by tailoring a 3D-printed cast to leave the space directly above an injured bone open, doctors could then fit them with ultrasonic devices that would speed the healing process. Ultrasound devices aren't a new concept in the healing of bones, but traditional plaster casts aren't very compatible with them. By precisely positioning the ultrasonic pulse generators over the damaged bones, 3D-printed casts provide the best healing available, even when you're out and about. With daily 20 minute ultrasound treatments, broken bones could be healed 38 to 80 percent quicker, depending on the injury.

Biosphere Home Farming

Incredible Biosphere Home Farming concept by Philips

Home Farming explores growing at least part of your daily calorific requirement inside your house. This biosphere home farm has been designed to occupy a minimum of floor space and instead to stack the various mini-ecosystems on top of each other. It contains fish, crustaceans, algae and edible plants, all interdependent and in balance with each other. Water filtration, recycling of nutrients and optimum use of sunlight are all central to its appeal.

Biosphere Home Farming

When you are living in the suburbs or the country side, it's easy to grow your own food. Veggies like tomatoes and some fruits like apples tend to grow quite easily. However, the closer you move to a city, the harder it gets. It's just the lack of green space. Not a lot of people have access to huge gardens in the city center. That's where this concept from Philips tries to help out allowing people to grow their own food, no matter where they are located.
